Episode 162: Abra's Jealousy
A couple of days came and went since Sora won his sixth badge; since then, they have started to make their way for Mahogany Town for his seventh Gym badge. Sora, Kairi, Pikachu, Togepi, the Pichu, and the Alolan nine had made a stop for some lunch. Sora had accessed his Pokédex and e changed Hitmonchan, Hitmonlee, and Donphan for Pineco, Meganium, and Feraligatr.
Their lunches just consisted of sandwiches made prior to leaving earlier this morning with sauce from Kairi's late mother. The group enjoyed the sandwiche they all had with their heart's content.
"These tastes great, Kairi. The sauce is just good enough to serve at my family's resturant," Mallow said.
"Thanks Mallow. It was when my mom was alive. My dad enjoyed the same way Sora does," Kairi said. Soras face lit up taking a bite of the sandwich.
The Pokémon enjoyed their lunch as well, but Abra was looking at Sora enjoying the sandwich he was eating. The Psi Pokémon just couldn't understand why she had to choose Sora. Abra just couldn't quite put his finger on it.
Abra remembered when he first saw her. It was when they were on their way to Olivine City and when Sora was having a battle with that one trainer.
(Flashback to Chapter 144)
Abra was out gathering some berries for lunch when he saw somnething he had not expect to find. Ot was a human girl with short auburn hair, holding a Togepi. When he first saw her, his heart started to beat at a rapid pace; faster than a Doduo and a Dodrio put together.
"She's beautiful! Just who is that girl? I must know who she is!" - Abra subtitle. Abra's eyes forms hearts.
He watched the girl closely and he was so captivated by her beauty.
"Way to go, Sora!" Kairi cheered for her boyfriend. She gave Sora a kiss on the cheek, making him blush. Abra watched the girl kiss him on the cheek and he crushed the berries with his telepathic powers.
Abra followed the group to the Krabby infested town he knew what they were walking right into.
"They don't seem to realize that they're heading right into what is now Krabby territory. I have got to keep a close watch on her; and them too." - Abra subtitle.
Abra followed the group through the town and saw them battle the Krabby. Just when the group got into a real pinch (no oun intended) and saw them trapped between a wall and an huge swarm of Krabby, he had to do something about it. He teleported his way to the group and teleported them to the safety of Miss Michelle's apartment. Miss Michelle simply thought Abra had sensed them in danger, but what she didn't know was that Abra was watching them from the shadows like a ghosts; not wanting them to know until he wanted them to. Abra wanted to know her name. When he heard it, his heart had fluttered faster.
"Kairi. Such a pretty name for a pretty girl. The angels sings the name of Kairi to me." - Abra subtitle. He imagines himself in a tuxedo and wearing a top hat with Kairi wearing a formal dress with a bunch of Togepi as cherubs.
(Back to the present)
Abra was happy that he got to be Kairi's Pokémon., and that he can be with Kairi; both his trainer and his crush. But, he had just one bit of competition to Kairi's affections: Sora himself.
"What could she see in someone like him? How can someone as incredible and so beautiful as Kairi love someone like him? I mean, what does he have that I don't?" - Abra subtitle.
Raichu, Rockruff, Magby, and the Kantonian Marowak all looked the Psychic Type Pokémon while Togepi and the Pichu ate their lunch in bliss, oblivious to Abra's melancholy.
"There he goes again. Pining over Kairi like an orphaned baby Kangaskhan crying for her mom." - Raichu subtitle.
"Has he always been like that?" - Rockruff subtitle.
"For as long as I knew him. Abra had a crush on Kairi since the day he first laid eyes on her. I seriously can't how he can be like that." - Raichu subtitle.
"I remember him being like that when he first came out to Professor Oak's lab and he was pretty lonesome for her. Luckily, Kairi's granny was there and she manages to calm him down." - Magby subtitle. Rockruff wagged her tail hearing about Kairi's grandmother.
"She sounds a real nice lady." - Rockruff subtitle.
"She is. I met her when I was just a Cubone. She had taken a liking to all of us when we first came to Professor Oak's lab. A lot of us have seen how nice she is towards us." - Kantonian Marowak subtitle.
"Yeah. And Togepi was the first of us to meet her. I can't even tell you how much we heard about her when she was little. Even Abra couldn't believe it. Abra just said that she's cute as a child as she is beautiful now." - Raichu subtitle.
"You think he's ever going to accept that Kairi is Sora's mate?" - Rockruff subtitle.
"I hope so, because I don't wanna imagine what might happen if he doesn't." - Raichu subtitle.
"I don't either." - Kantonian Marowak subtitle.
Pikachu noticed Kairi's Pokémon talking about a certain Psychic Type Pokémon and about something that can never be.
"Let me guess; you're talking about A-B-R-A, right?" - Pikachu subtitle.
"You know it, brother." - Raichu subtitle. Pikachu sighs.
"Does anyone know what is going through his head?" - Pikachu subtitle.
"None of Sora's or Kairi's other Pokémon even knows what he's thinking. Not even Smoochum and she's a Psychic Type. And I don't even think Natu could tell us what. - " Magby subtitle.
Pikachu had to agree with the live coal Pokémon since Natu is the newest one on Sora's team and she couldn't figure Abra out on his obession.
After a enjoying some lunch, Sora, Kairi, the Alolan nine and their Pokémon got on with some training; Sora for his Gym challenge, Kairi and the Alolan nine for anything coming their way like Team Rocket coming their way, or maybe Mad Ivan, or a rogue Pokémon attacking for no reason.
Unknown to the group, a young man comes by and he watches the group doing sometraining. He has lilac hair that falls over his left eye, while a bang frames his right eye. He wore a tight domino mask that covers his eyes and the space between them. He wore a black sleeveless tailcoat-like vest, with a pink tuxedo top underneath it, while the vest sports two rows of double brass buttons, with a gold line between them. He wears pink pants, with black derby shoes, while a frilled white cravat is present on his neck.
"This is an interesting group," the young man said in his thoughts. "These youngsters are training hard. I wonder what could they be training for. This could be fun to watch."
The group's Pokémon are training hard, unaware of Team Rocket had finally caught up with them ever since the Whirl Cup.
"Found them at last! And it took us just several days to do it!" Jessie said.
"And what a miracle that was," Meowth deadpanned.
"The twerps sure are training hard for something," James guessed.
"This is perfect! We can get the drop on them while they're busy and move in to swipe Pikachu! They won't even see it coming!" Jessie praised.
"Oh boy," Meowth said.
"I just hope your plan works better than the last time. Getting all those guards to surround the Sea Sprirt idea didn't exactly work. We would have pulled it nicely if that twerpette and those three guys didn't screw with us," James said.
"This time it's completely different. We'll just put on extremely convincing disguises and then move and lead the twerps to a cave somewhere and shove down in a ditch and make off with all of their Pokémon and none's the wiser," Jessie said.
"I love that idea, Jessie!" Meowth said.
"Then, let's get to it, then!" Jessie said. Wobbufett pops out of his own Pokéball once more.
"Wobbufett!" Wobbufett said in a salute.
The Team Rocket trio and the patient Pokémon had gotten started to get their evil plan into effect, acquiring disguises to wear to fool them; but Sora will just recognize them because of their hair, and Jessie's hair is just a big fat giveaway.
Once the diguises were put on, the proceeded to get on with their scheme to steal all of their Pokémon.
"Everybody ready?" Jessie asked her cohorts.
"Ready," James and Meowth both said.
"Fett," Wobbufett nodded.
Charizard was sparing with Typhlosion and fired Flamethrower right at Team Rocket, making them burnt to a crisp. Pineco rolled over and explodes right into Team Rocket, making them go flying.
"So much for this idea, Jessie," Meowth said. "I knew it wasn't gonna work!"
"No fair, no fair, no fair!" Jessie exclaimed.
"Well, there's always next time," James said.
"Team Rocket's blasting off again!' Team Rocket shouted. A star twinkles in the distance.
Everyone's Pokémon took a break, resting for a while until they get their strength back. Sora walked to Pikachu and gave him some water.
"Here buddy. Here's some water to cool you down," Sora said.
"Pikachu," Pikachu said, drinking the water.
"Gotta admit, this was a pretty good idea, Sora. After everything we've been through lately, we have got to be on our toes," Kiawe said.
"Thanks. Just makes me wish I thought of it a lot sooner," Sora said.
"But, all the same, we should be ready for anything. We can never tell where there might be some Ultra Beasts around," Illima stated. Unknown to them, one of the Kartana was passing by.
"Not only that, but also for Team Rocket and for any wild Pokémon gone rogue," Lillie said.
Everyone all nodded in agreement and they all heard clapping coming from their right and they all turned to see the young man, wearing some formal clothing and a mask. He was applauding them.
"Bravo. I was watching you train your Pokémon and I was mighty impressed. You and your Pokémon work well together," the young man said. The group all looked at him and they all found him to be a bit odd.
"Um, thanks. We just didn't know we had a small audience," Sora said.
"But, you do. Allow me introduce myself. My name is Will. And Psychic Type Pokémon are my specialty," Will introduced himself. He he bows his head, placing his hand on his stomach. "And now you must return the introductions."
"I'm Sora."
"And I'm Kairi."
"My name is Lillie."
"I am Illima."
"I'm Mallow."
"My name's Kiawe."
"My name's Lana."
"I'm Sophocles."
"My name's Acerola."
"Mina."
"And I'm Hapu."
"A pleasure to meet you," Will said. "I apologize for intruding, I just I would make my presence known to you out of respect."
"You don't need to apologize, WIll. We were just getting some training done, but you already know that. But, what brings you out here?" Sora asked.
"I was merely passing through and I had noticed you. And I was impressed by your skills. It's not very often I see such young trainers who shows promise and has potential to add," Will said. He looked over to Sora's Natu and to Kairi's Abra. "And I must say, judging how your Psychic Type Pokémon look, they have loads of promise." He looked over to Abra once again and he notices something about Abra. "Your Abra seems to be very attached to you, Kairi."
"He's always been like this ever since I first got him. He's just ever so loyal," Kairi said. Abra takes her by the hand.
"I can see that," Will said. He then sets his sights onto Sora's Natu. "And how long has this Natu been with you?"
"Just for a couple of days," Sora asnwered. "First met her on the Whirl Islands and she came all this way just to be with me."
"I see. Where are you currently heading towards?" Will asked.
"We're actually on our way to Mahogany Town for a Gym battle," Sora said.
"Ah, you're collecting Gym Badges, hm? And how many Badges have you won?" Will asked.
"Six," Sora simply said.
"And you need only two more to enter the Johto Pokémon League," Will guessed. "Sounds to me that you are well on your way, Sora. Well on your way indeed. I was hoping if you would like to join me for dinner this evening. I would love to have some company."
"I guess it wouldn't hurt to take you up on that offer, Will," Kairi said.
"We're not too far from my place. Come along," Will said. The group abliged him and Will led them to a mansion and it was huge. "And here we are." They all entered the place and a butler is standing in the doorway and he bows his head.
"Welcome home, Master Will. And I see that you have guests," the butler said.
"They will be joining us for dinner this evening. See to it that everything is in perfection, Douglas," Will said.
"As you wish, sir," Douglas said, bowing his head. He heads off into the kitchen to make the preperations.
"Our meal will be prepared around six in the evening,so I figured you would like to freshen up and enjoy the baths here," Will offered.
"We really appreciate it, Will," Acerola said.
"Wonderful," Will said. He takes out a small bell and rings it. A couple more butlers have come and bowed their heads in respect. "Bartholomew, Christopher, will you our guests to their quarters? One for the girls and one for the boys?"
"Yes sir," Christopher said.
"And we shall see that they have been made at home, Master Will," Bartholomew added. "Right this way, sirs."
"Won't you young ladies follow me please?" Christopher asked.
The group followed the butlers to their guest rooms and when they entered the rooms, the boys had two beds, while two will be sharing each. The room for the girls has the same amount of beds and three will share one and four will be sharing one.
After getting settled in, the girls took their bath first as the boys had followed after. Kairi came out wearing a white bathrobe and drying her hair.
"I really needed that," Kairi sighed. Sora was wearing the same kind of bathrobe and he smiles at his girlfriend.
"Had a good bath, Kairi?" Sora asked.
"Yeah. It was very refreshing. The water was so nice and warm," Kairi said.
"I'm just glad you enjoyed it so much," Sora said. Kairi smiled and she gave Sora a kiss on the lips. He kissed her back. Abra was watching the couple kissing and he didn't like the very sight of it. Abra's eyes were glowing red and he clutched his fists.
"I want Kairi all to myself. I love her. She's mine! She's mine!" - Abra subtitle.
An Kadabra is seen floating above Abra and he just shook his head in disbelief.
"The poor delusional Pokémon. You're just gonna end up with a broken heart. I just know it." - Kadabra subtitle.
Sora and the other boys had enjoyed their bath to wash away the sweat. Abra teleported in the hot spring and in the cover of steam, Abra used his Psychic to manipulate the soap and shampoo.
"Huh? Wha?" Sora asked. He tried to get hold of the soap to wash himself and he ends up getting pelted with it. "Hey! What's the gag?!" The soap smacks Sora in the face. "Ow! Ow! OW!" Illima, Kiawe, and Sophocles saw what was going on.
"What's the matter, Sora?" Illima asked.
"I don't know, but I think my soap has a mind of its own!" Sora said. The shampoo conks him on the head. "Ouch!"
"Funny, nothing is going on with mine," Kiawe asked.
"Nor mine," Illima said.
"Maybe it's just happening with Sora," Sophocles guessed. He didn't know how right he was; Abra used Psychic to unscrew the shapoo top and just pour it all on his head.
"Hey! I wanna have my hair clean, but not THIS clean!" Sora exclaimed.
Abra carried on all through the bath and teleported out before he could be spotted. Soon after the bath was over, he came out with a sour look on his face.
"What is going on here? Why was it only happening with Sora?" Sophocles asked.
"I honestly don't know, but I don't think it'll be a good idea to bring it up," Illima said.
"But, at least the dinner will go down smoothly," Kiawe said.
Dinnertime came around six and the guests took their seats; most of them. Sora was about to sit down when his chair just moved way back before he could sit down.
"What is going on?" Sora whispered to himself. He took his seat and sat down. He just didn't get what was going on. "And I thought I had a hard time in the bath." This had not escaped Will's notice.
"Is something the matter, Sora?" Will asked.
"Everything is okay," Sora answered him with a smile, pretending nothing was wrong. Abra was hiding in the corner and used Psychic to move the chair.
"Well, I hope you enjoy this soup my chefs have prepared. It is divine," Will said. The cooks have brought the bowls of soup and presented it to the guests. Sora smiled and he took a spoonful of the soup and he blew on it, just so he won't burn his tongue. Abra uses Psychic again and used it to push the bowl on his lap.
"YEOW!" Sora yelled, feeling the soup spill on his lap. It made such a mess on his clothes. Will, Kairi, Pikachu, Togepi, the Pichu, and the Alolan nine all looked his way.
"What's wrong, Sora?" Lillie asked.
"I don't know! The soup just spilled on my lap! And it's so hot!" Sora said.
"My, my, my. Nothing like this has ever happened before. Perhaps I can provide you some pajamas and some other clothes until yours dry?" Will offered.
"I appreciate that, Will," Sora said gratefully. Sora got changed into some clean clothes and he was provided some pajamas of his own. Once he came right back and given a new bowl of soup, Abra got ready to use Psychic again, but Kadabra took its pre-evolved form and teleported outside. Abra was not happy having to have his evolved form teleport him outside.
"Why did you do that? What is your beef?" - Abra subtitle.
"What is yours? You're going out of your way to make that one boy's stay here excruciating for him. And for what? All for a human girl?" - Kadabra subtile.
"That is none of your business! She is something special to me. I mean, really, really, special." - Abra subtitle.
"You have the lovebug, I just know it. But, it won't work for you. That girl is your trainer and that boy is her signifigant other. Just face it, she's a human and you're a Pokémon. It's never gonna happen. The better you accept that, the better you're going to be." - Kadabra subtitle. Abra refused to accept that fact.
"No! You are wrong! i love her! I love Kairi and nothing you say is going to make me change my mind! Not you or any other Pokémon on this planet!" - Abra subtitle. Kadabra sighed.
"Don't take my word for it. And when you end up with a broken heart, just don't say that I didn't warn you. But, if you do get caught red-handed into your little monkeyshines, you're going to be on your own." - Kadabra subtitle.
Both Psi Pokémon teleported back inside the house. Abra teleported back in the girls guest room and he flows back inside his Pokéball just so he wouldn't risk getting caught.
The rest of the meal went on without anymore complications; for Sora at least. Sora and Kairi strolled outside in the garden, just the two of them. Some Hoothoot, Aipom, and some Caterpie, Weedle, and sleeping Exeggcute in the trees.
"Look at this garden. I can guess those Pokémon must like living here," Sora said.
"And I can see why. It's very pretty here," Kairi said.
"Yeah, but not as pretty as you," Sora said. Kairi was so moved by the compiment he just given her.
"Oh, Sora. You're so very sweet," Kairi said lovingly. Abra pops out of his Pokéball and teleported out to the garden. Pikachu was asleep along with his adoptive little brothers and Togepi and then his ears perks up. He saw one of Kairi's Pokéballs were opened; and he knew which one it was. He saw the couple taking a stroll.
"Gotta say, Kairi, taking a walk out here in the garden was a great idea. Mallow would probably love it since she uses Grass Type Pokémon," Sora said.
"Yeah, she would. But, the love for the garden has nothing to top the love I have for you, Sora. I said it to you more times I can count since we became a couple and I'm never going to stop saying it," Kairi said to him. Abra didn't like how that sounded one bit.
"I love you too, Kairi. And I'm going to say that I love you and I don't care if I sound like a broken record saying it. And like you, I won't stop saying it," Sora said. Sora and Kairi kissed each other on the lips with so much passion and they became enthralled their kiss. Abra felt a sharp stab in his heart. He wondered what Kadabra said was true. Refsuing to let it go unanswered, Abra teleported to the couple and used Psychic on Sora. "Hey! What'sgoing on?!" Abra used Psychic on Sora and Kairi saw what Abra was doing.
"Abra! What are you doing?! Stop that right now!" Kairi told Abra. Abra refused and slams him on the ground. Sora gets back on his feet and landed a Mega Punch on Sora's gut and then followed it with a Mega Kick in the same spot. "I said stop it, Abra!" Abra still refused and used Psychic on his love rival. Pikachu came to the scene and saw what was happening. Pikachu rushes over to Abra, occupied with holding Sora in Psychic.
"Pikachu!" Pikachu shouted, using Thunderbolt on him. The Electric Type attack shocks Abra and he loses his Psychic grip on Sora. He was hurt and Kairi rushes to her boyfriend. Hearing the commotion, the Alolan nine all rush to where Sora and Kairi are. They were all concerned.
"What happened?" Lana asked.
"We heard a commotion," Hapu said.
"So, we came out to see what was what," Sophocles said.
"Is Team Rocket here?" Kiawe asked.
"No. Team Rocket didn't do this," Kairi said.
"Then, what happened?" Acerola asked.
"And what happened to Sora?" Mallow asked.
"Abra just attacked him. And Pikachu came and stopped him," Kairi told her friends.
"Abra?" Kiawe asked.
"Why?" Mina asked.
"Why would Abra just attack Sora like that?" Lillie asked.
"I think I know," Will spoke up. He came out to the garden. "There is a good reason why Abra attacked Sora. Abra is jealous of him," Will said.
"What? Jealous?" Sophocles asked.
"Yes. Abra is devoted to Kairi so much, he feels that Kairi cares about him and she does about Abra. So, he wanted to get him out of the way," Will stated.
"That would make sense. Abra had this crush on Kairi since we met him in the Krabby infested town," Illima stated. Kairi glared over to Abra and went over to him.
"Abra, I am very surprised at you. I just can't believe that you would attack Sora like that. What you just did was absolutely unacceptable! I honestly don't know what you were thinking doing that! And I told you to stop and you disobeyed me! When I tell you to stop, I expect you to stop! Don't you ever disobey me like that again! Do you understand?" Kairi scolded her Pokémon. Tears flows from his eyes and he teleports away. "Abra? Where did you go? Abra!" Kairi frantically looks around for Abra.
Kairi looked around for her Abra and saw no signs of him. Sora slowly got on his feet and he walked over to her.
"Kairi," Sora wheezed. Kairi turned to him. "What's wrong?"
"Abra's gone," Kairi said. "And I don't know where he went." Sora puts his hand on her shoulder.
"Abra is going to be alright. He'll come back. I'm sure of it," Sora assured his girlfriend. Kairi smiled at him, but she realized how little that helped her. It was getting too dark out to do anything, so they decided to search Abra in the morning if he didn't come back.
Elsewhere, Abra ended up crying his eyes out, hearing Kairi scolding. It was the first time Kairi was ever so cold to him and he didn't like it one bit. Abra thought about what Will's Kadabra said to him and he knew his evolved form was right; he was on his own.
In the very next morning, everyone got up and checked to see if Abra had come back at all from last night; but, it turns out that he didn't.
"Abra hasn't come back at all," Acerola said.
"You don't think he ran away because of what Kairi said to him?" Mallow asked. Kairi was starting to feel more guilty with what she said to him.
"Abra, I'm so sorry for what I said. I just want to find you and let you know that I forgive you," Kairi said in her thoughts.
The group searched every inch of the garden and so far, found nothing.
"Anything?" Illima asked.
"Not a single sign," Lillie said.
"Same here," Mina said.
"I guess we're all drawing a huge blank here," Sora said. He ran his hair through his hair and gave off a huge sigh. "We better keep searching."
"I don't think Abra is in the garden any longer. It's my belief he is somewhere in thie forest. And we should keep a sharp look out for him because there is a huge flock of Spearow in the area. They will attack anyone and anything that crosses their territory carelessly."
"You don't seem too bothered by them," Kiawe said.
"They will not attack me just as long I have my Kadabra and my other Psychic Type Pokémon with me. But, we should hurry because there's no telling what will happen to Abra when we don't." That made Kairi worry since she knew Spearow are territorial bird Pokémon. And she dreaded the very thought of something happening to Abra before she had a chance to makeup with him.
"We better get moving and search for Abra before something happens; And I don't know who I should be worried about more, Team Rocket or all those Spearow.
Meanwhile, over to Team Rocket, they all roam the woods totally beat from their unfortunate fiasco from the previous day.
"Just when we had a plan good and ready, we have it blown up in our faces," Meowth groaned.
"And I didn't think it would be too literal," James added.
"And to add insult to injury, we lose their trail again. I don't know how much of this I can take," Jessie said.
"We seem to be made to suffer. It's our lot in life," Meowth said. Jessie and James just looked at the scratch cat Pokémon when they heard that line before. "What?"
"Nothing, it's just we didn't need to hear anything about us suffering," Jessie said. They kept walking and they didn't notice some eyes peeking through the leaves on top of the leaves. It turns out to be the Spearow they were warned about. There were some hiding in the shrubs. Their stomachs were grumbling in hunger.
"I'm starting to get very hungry," James said.
"Me too. Makes me wish that there was a burger stand or maybe a fried chicken joint. Hell, I'll even settle for an apple tree or an orange tree!" Meowth said.
"How about that peach tree," Jessie suggested. James and Meowth all look at her and she's pointing to a peach tree with a single peach left. James squeeled with delight having to find themselves a peach tree and with a peach on it.
"Just look at tht peach!" James said with his watering.
"And it looks ripe for the picking!" Meowth added.
"And it's mine, all mine!" Jessie said.
Team Rocket races towards the tree, arguing over who gets to have the single fruit on the tree. Jessie, James, and Meowth reached the top of the tree and Meowth grabs the peach.
"Got it!" Meowth cheered.
"No you don't you greedy little feline!" Jessie snarled, taking the peach from his paws. "It's mine!"
"No way, Jessie! It's mine! I got to the tree first!" James snarled.
"Well, I saw it first, so finder's eaters!" Jessie argued.
"I reached for the top and grabbed it first, so it's only fair that who gets it, eats it!" Meowth said.
Team Rocket continues to argue over the peach. Jessie holds it over her head as James and Meowth tried to grab it out her hand, when one of the Spearow swipes it from her hand.
"Huh?" Team Rocket all questioned.
"What just happened to the peach?" Jessie asked.
"I think something just came and swiped it out of your hand," James said. Meowth turns around and he winced when he saw the bird Pokémon behind them.
"And I know what it was," Meowth said, pointing to the Spearow. Jessie and James turns and they see the flock of Spearow attacking Team Rocket and they all run off screaming in pain when the Spearow were pecking them senseless. There was one Spearow that is much larger than the rest of them; that made that Spearow is the leader of the entire flock.
Abra was sleeping soudly, unaware of a Rattata in the same area as him. Rattata saw the psi Pokémon and woke him up.
"What wre you doing in here? This is my den! Do I break into your home and just sleep where I please?" - Rattata subtitle.
"Sorry. I didn't know anybody lived here. I'll be going." - Abra subtitle. Abra stepped out of the Rattata's den when he was spotted by a couple of Spearow. They turned to each other and nodded in agreement. They flew to inform their leader.
After the drove Team Rocket off of their turf, one of the Spearow flew to the alpha Spearow and whispered to the alpha, telling them about the Abra. The alpha Spearow turned to the informants and told them to lead it to the lone Abra.
Over to the group, they had split up to cover more ground and to stay in a group, just so they be ready for the attacking Spearow. The couple stuck with Will. He let out his Kadabra, Xatu, Slowbro, Exeggutor, and Jynx to help find Abra. Sora had his Natu let out to help them out. Pikachu looked around on Sora's shoulders searching for Abra and for any signs of him.
"We've been looking for hours. You sure this is where Abra might be?" Sora asked.
"I'm sure. I have a special connection with Psychic Type Pokémon ever since I was a little boy. Guess you can say that I have a very special connection with them," Will said. "Also, our Psychic Type Pokémon working together will help increase our chances, since they can sense him, better than we can and for in case of any Spearow attacks."
"I just wanna find Abra before that even happens," Kairi said. Sora looked at her.
"Don't worry, Kairi. We'll find Abra and get out of here before it happens. I mean, he was probably out here pouting for a while and he'll be happy to see you again and give you a big ol' hug," Sora assured her.
"Probably. But, what if he doesn't wanna come back with me after yelling at him last night? And I wouldn't blame him if he started hating me for it," Kairi said, tearfully.
"Abra is not going to hate you, Kairi. None of your Pokémon hate you. They all love you the same way as all of my Pokémon love you; the same for Pikachu," Sora said.
"Pika," Pikachu nodded in agreement. That made Kairi feel so much better hearing him say that.
"You're right, Sora," Kairi said. Sora wiped off the tears on her eyes. "And thank you, Sora." Kairi gave her boyfriend a hug. He placed boith arms around her. Will smiled at the sight. He looked down and saw a red feather on the ground. He picked it up and he looked at it.
"Sora, Kairi. You should see this," Will said. The couple went over to Will and he showed them the feather. "This feather came from the wings of a Spearow. I fear that they are close to us. We should be alert."
Not needing to be told twice, they nodded inagreement and continued to search for the missing Abra.
Not too far away, Meowth got seperated from Jessie and James and is running for his life. He pants frantically having to finally lose the Spearow.
"What was their deal?" Meowth panted. He spotted Abra and he noticed how depressed he looked. "Hey, I know you. You're that Abra who are with those twerps. And especially that twerpy girl." Abra used his Psychic on the scratch cat Pokémon and pinned him down.
"Don't you dare call her that you no-good feline!" -Abra subtitle.
"Hey! Loosen your grip and get a grip! I had a hard time giving those buzzards the slip! I don't need you to make my problems worse!" Meowth said. Abra places Meowth down. "Anyway, why the long face, pal? And why ain't ya with your buddies?"
"I don't wanna talk about it." - Abra subtitle.
"Oh c'mon. It'll make ya feel better. Just to get it off your chest," Meowth said. Abra just looked at the cat Pokémon and sighed.
"The girl I love is in love with someone else and she rejected me. I just thought something we had was magic." - Abra subtitle. Meowth caught on to his predicament.
"Oh, it's girl problems. I dunno what to tell ya, buddy, but it was never gonna work out between the two of yas. Take it from someone who's been there," Meowth said. Abra just looked at him.
"Really? What happened?" - Abra subtitle.
"Okay, it's like this. I was just a young Meowth in my day and I fell head over heels for a girl Meowth. Her name was Meowzie. You may believe this, but she's the reason I can walk and talk like a human," Meowth said.
"Really? Pikachu and the other Pokémon never told me that story." - Abra subtitle.
"That's becasue they don't know about it. I never even told them my backstory. I never even told Jessie and James about it," Meowth said. Abra got curious to hear Meowth's backstory and how he learned how to talk.
"What happened?" - Abra subtitle.
"Well, it's like this," Meowth started. "I started out as an little orphan Meowth and nobody cared about me and nobody wanted to have anything to do with me. I lived in the streets my whole life. I met up a gang of alley Meowth all led by a Persian. We went on many raids on food everyday. I lived that kind of life, until I first saw her." Meowth's face grew red just remembering her. "Ah, she was the most beautiful Meowth that my peepers ever set on. I went over to introduce myself, when her owner came and shooed me away. And Meowzie, said that she wouldn't have anything to do with me if I was the last Meowth on Earth. She even said that she would rather be with a Grimer than with me. And those words cut through me like a knife. And I saw the way she looked at the diamonds on that Pokéball, and how can I compete with that? So, to win her over, I had to make myself human." Abra just looked at the scratch cat Pokémon and found it hard to believe he had such a rotten life, while he never knew such hardships.
"You mean to tell me, the only way to win her is to make yourself a human?" - Abra subtitle.
"Yeah. So, I went to a building to learn how. I learned to walk like a human, since humans walks on two legs and not four," Meowth said. I then started to learn how to talk like a human. And I ain't gonna lie, it wasn't easy. Did I give up? No, I didn't." Meowth smiled having to to remember his first words. "I kept going until finally, I learned how to talk. And when I went back to woo Meowzie again, but she turned me down again and she called me a freak in my face." Meowth sighed sadly. Abra was holding onto every word he said. "That was the last time I had ever seen her and I joined up with Team Rocket to become rich and powerful just to show her and well, you know the rest."
"I guess you just tried too hard. And I'm sure if you met Kairi before joining Team Rocket, she would never turn you away."- Abra subtitle.
"I figured she wouldn't. She would take me in the same way as she took you in. So, here's a word of advice to save yourself from heartbreak. Don't try to impress a girl who isn't gonna return your affections. I learned that the hard way. And I can tell you, it ain't worth the pain," Meowth said. Abra just nodded to let Meowth know he understands where he was going with it. The two Spearow from before led the alpha to where Abra is and the alpha recognized the Meowth with him. The alpha makes a loud cry, getting both Meowth and Abra turn their heads. "Crap! It's them!" The flock had started to come to where the alpha and the other two are. Sora, Kairi, Pikachu, Togepi, Will, and his Pokémon saw the flock and saw where they were going.
"It's the Spearow!" Will said. "And it looks like they have something in their sights," Will said.
"No. Abra!" Kairi gasped.
"We can get there! We just have to hurry!" Sora said.
"Agreed. Come on," Will said.
Some of the Spearow dove down towards Meowth and Abra, but Abra fights back using Mega Punch and Mega Kick. A couple of Spearow started to peck on Meowth making him scream in pain.
"Ow! Ow! Ow! Stop it!" Meowth yelped. Abra used Psychic to get the Spearow off of him and sent them flying in the air. The alpha dove down towards Abra, but he teleported out of the way, before Spearow could land a hit on him. Abra reappeared up in a tree, but the alpha wasn't going to give up that easily. "Abra, be careful. That big turkey ain't screwing around!" The alpha dove down and Abra teleported again, and right back down, but Spearow attacked using Aerial Ace and struck Abra with it. The alpha Spearow's body becomes surrounded by a gradually intensifying light blue aura. Abra levitated to deliever a Mega Punch to the alpha. Once the aura flares up, the alpha Spearow flies into Abra, causing some damage to him. Abra falls on and lands on his stomach. The alpha Spearow glared at Abra and planned to finish him off by tearing him to shreds with his talons, but luckily, the couple, Will, and the Pokémon had come just in time to save him.
"Natu! Moe in with Zen Headbutt!" Sora ordered. Natu fluttered her way to the alpha Spearow surrounded with a blue and purple aura and slams right into the alpha, causing it to lose his focus.
"Abra!" Kairi cried out. She ran to her Pokémon and she picked him up. "Abra! Please be okay!" Meowth walked up to her.
"He's okay. He's just out," Meowth assured her. Kairi felt better knowing Abra was alright, not caring if Meowth was there. Kairi looked up and saw Natu battling the alpha Spearow. The flock didn't take too kindly to the interference, so they were about to attack when Will stepped in.
"Xatu! Confuse Ray!" Will ordered. Xatu fired a golden ball and sends it to the attacking Spearow, making them confused. "Slowbro! Exeggutor! Kadabra! Jynx! Xatu! Psychic!" All of the Psychic Type Pokémon had sent the flock flying, except for the aplha who is still battling Natu. The alpha tried to land a hit on Natu, but she was too quick for it and she was getting tired fast. "Sora! That Spearow is much larger than any of the others! That has to be the leader!"
"Good to know! Natu! Peck!" Sora ordered. Natu fluttered right towards Spearow and pecked at the larger bird Pokémon. Spearow attacked with Drill Peck. "Double Team!" Natu made several images of herself and the alpha's attack had missed. "Use Peck again!" Natu and the duplicates all attacked the alpha hard. The alpha knew it wasn't going to be able to find the real Natu, unless it used Aerial Ace. Spearow used that attack to find the real one and the attack had knocked her out. Sora takes out Natu's Pokéball to call her back. "Come back, Natu!" Sora called out. He looked over to Pikachu. "You're up, Pikachu!"
"Pika," Pikachu nodded. The alpha Spearow glared at the mouse Pokémon with a hateful look and dove down to tear him into shreds like it was about to do to Abra, but Sora knew what to do.
"Pikachu! Thunderbolt!" Sora ordered. Pikachu fired Thunderbolt and it shocks the alpha Spearow good and it falls to the ground and then quickly regains its balance. "That Spearow is never gonna give up. The only way to end this is that I catch it." He took out a Pokéball to get ready to throw it. "Thunderbolt again!" Pikachu gives Spearow another Thunderbolt and it does even more damage, but Sora knew it wasn't gonna be enough to keep it down. As soon as the alpha starts falling, Sora threw the Pokéball before it could regain its balance and the alpha flows inside. The Pokéball wobbles around and around for a bit, knowing he's got a stubborn one judging how the Pokéball was wobbling. The Spearow inside is trying to get loose. Stars swirls around the Pokéball confirming the catch. Sora's Pokédex starts buzzing asking him if he wants to keep Spearow or send it to Professor Oak's lab. Sora chose to send Spearow over to Professor Oak. "There. Problem resolved." Sora puts his Pokédex away. He looked over to Kairi and went over to his girlfriend and to her Abra. "Is Abra doing okay?"
"Abra is just knocked out, but he'll be okay," Kairi said.
"That's good," Sora said. Abra starts to stir awake. "I think he's starting to come around."
"How can you tell?" Meowth asked.
"I just can," Sora said. "Also, why are you here?"
"Long story," Meowth simply said. Abra opened his squinted eyes and sees Kairi looking back at him.
"Abra. Thank goodness you're okay," Kairi said with relief. "It was a good thing we came before things got worse."
"Abra?" Abra was surprised to see both Sora and Kairi had come looking for him after what happened.
"I guess she wouldn't turn ya away either," Meowth said.
"Wait? Who turn who away?" Sora asked confused.
"Pika?" Pikachu was just as confused
"Abra told me what happened just before those birds showed up. And I gave him a helpful advice," Meowth said.
"Helpful advice? You?" Sora asked, raising a brow.
"I know what you're thinking, but it's true," Meowth said.
"I'm just happy to see that you're okay," Kairi said. "I would never forgive myself if anything happened to you." Abra was starting to feel guilty for making her worry like he did.
"Abra, Abra, Abra, Abra," Abra said.
"Abra is saying that he's sorry that he made ya worry so much and he appreciates that ya through the trouble just to find him," Meowth translated.
"Abra, Abra, Abra, Abra, Abra," Abra said.
"And he's sorry for attacking Sora like that. And he promised he won't ever do it again," Meowth translated.
"Why did you do it, Abra? Did you attack Sora because you were jealous of him, just like Will said?" Kairi asked. Abra nodded. "Was it because you had a crush on me and you wanted me all to yourself?" Abra nodded, not caring who knew it. "I am flattered, Abra, but I'm sorry. I think you're a cute Pokémon, but Sora is my boyfriend and your my Pokémon. And I'll forgive you for attacking him, if you forgive me for overreacting. You just scared me." Abra looked over to her and he smiles. "But, I'll love you all the same as my other Pokémon; and nothing is ever gonna change that." Abra was touched by what his trainer said to him, but he wanted a little closure.
"Abra, Abra, Abra, Abra?" Abra asked.
"Abra is asking if you're happy with him," Meowth translated.
"Yes. More than ever," Kairi answered.
"Abra, Abra, Abra," Abra said.
"Then that's all that matters to him, because he wants ya to be happy," Meowth translated.
"Thank you," Kairi said, hugging Abra. "You should thank Sora, because he saved you by battling and catching that big Spearow. He would have ripped you apart if we hadn't come along." Abra was very grateful for Sora saving him.
"Looks like everything has worked out for the better," Will said.
"Almost," Sora corrected him. "Hey Meowth, how would you like to come with us? We can use a Pokémon like you. And you can use your gift for something productive." Meowth couldn't believe what he heard; Sora was willing to give Meowth a chance, even if he didn't deserve it after all of the previous times they went at it.
"Thanks, but my place is with Team Rocket. But, I'm gonna let you slide this time, but the next time will be different," Meowth said. Sora had to respect that.
"If you feel that way, then I'm going to respect your decision. But, the offer is still standing if you change your mind," Sora said.
"Don't bet on it," Meowth said, before he dashed off.
Sora, Kairi, Will, and the Pokémon met the Alolan nine back at Will's mansion and they saw their friends and their host come back with Abra.
"Guys! You found Abra!" Lillie said.
"Is everything okay?" Mallow asked.
"Everything is fine," Sora said.
"Everything worked out in the end," Kairi added.
"That is a relief," Lana said.
"Just tell us what happened," Kiawe said.
Sora and Kairi told their friends about how they found Abra; but not only that, but Sora got himself a new Pokémon to boot.
"So, you caught one of those Spearow?" Acerola asked surprised.
"And not just any Spearow, but it was the alpha," Lillie added.
"It was the only way to end it. Spearow would have kept attacking if I didn't think of catching him," Sora said.
"I would have to agree," Illima said.
"I second that," Will agreed. The group got ready to depart for Mahogany Town and said their goodbyes to Will. "I do wish you luck on your journey, my friends."
"Thanks Will; for treating us for a meal and everything," Sora said, not counting the bath fiasco.
"Not at all. Just promise that you will keep training those Pokémon of yours," Will said. Sora smiled at that.
"We all will, Will," Sora said. The group departed from Will's mansion and continued to be on their way to Mahogany Town and for Sora's seventh Johto Gym battle to come closer.
As for Abra, he had finally accepted his trainer's love for Sora. If she was happy with him, then he was happy for her. Pikachu and the other Pokémon were glad to see Abra had matured. Many more adventures awaits them on their way.
